Global 5.5-in. Cheese Knife

The first Global knife was designed in 1985 by Komin Yamada who was commissioned to develop a superior, revolutionary knife made with the best materials and employing the most modern design concepts. Given an almost unlimited budget, he created an award-winning knife that ultimately appealed to both the professional and at-home chefs. Made from the finest stainless steel available anywhere (Molybdenum/vanadium), this Cheese Knife has a remarkably sharp blade - one that's been ice-tempered and hardened to meet stringent standards. It's serrated for cutting through medium hard and soft cheeses while leaving the slice intact. Cut-outs in blade allow the cheese to release easier from the knife and the forked tip adds a dual pupose, allowing you to serve once cheese is sliced. The knife is carefully weighted to ensure perfect balance as you work with it in your kitchen. The smooth contours and seamless construction prevent food and dirt particles from collecting on the knife - the ultimate in good kitchen hygiene.
